You know what NASA stands for? Never A Straight Answer. The mainstream media is not telling us everything. Have you noticed that things are getting kind of crazy around the world? If you want the truth then I would suggest that you take a look at this video: http://goo.gl/uMjlQ

Hi folks
I’ve been looking all weekend for the multi branch (multi RP) answer. I was mislead and told that this was a feature of SP2. I’m crossing all my fingers and toes that it makes it into V2 and I can use it with V1 hardware. Thanks folks, putting in my order for office 2 in the morning.

Hi j allen.

Nothing’s been announced yet, but we believe that V2 will be the release that is currently slated for the July 2009 timeframe, and is discussed above. At this time we believe that current hardware will be sufficient to support V2.

As we learn more we’ll be sure to post it here on RPTricks.com!

Where can we learn more about Austin (RP 2.0)? When will there be more information about its feature set and release date? Will it be possible to just software-update existing RP base units, or will we need to purchase a new RP 2.0 base unit?

Inquiring minds _need_ to know!

Hello Vi.

Send your contact info to us and I’ll forward it to Microsoft for you. I can’t promise that they’re still accepting beta test users, but I’m happy to try on your behalf.

Andrew.

Do you have any info on getting on the beta testing list for RP SP2?

I have a client who is needing remote phone functionality, and I have already setup a site-to-site vpn between their remote user and the main office.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Sincerly,

Hi Nick.

Good to have you here.

As things stand today, Response Point won’t work at remote office locations. It’s currently a single-network solution. Everything has to be on the same subnet for the system to work properly.

What’s proposed for the Feb/09 timeframe release is that you’ll be able to provision a phone at the central location (as you do today) and then you’ll be able to take that phone to any location that has a site-to-site VPN tunnel to the central location, plug it in, and you’ll be able to use it as though it were in the central office. As I understand it, the remote phone will not be remotely manageable – if you need to make changes to it you’ll have to return it to the central location for re-provisioning.

What’s proposed for the mid-year/09 timeframe release is that the phone won’t need to be on a VPN. This isn’t well defined yet but my understanding is that the provisioning (add/edit a phone) wizard will allow you to put a public IP address into the phone so that it can connect to Response Point.

Microsoft are very much aware of the need for remote phone capability. I know they’re working hard on getting this feature out into the field.
